CS.net Update - Minor CS Changes

Posted by Blitz at 10:08 28/1/2004.

Cliffe has updated the official Counter-Strike news with some snippets of information regarding changes they're planning to implement in the near future. Here's the snippet:

"Just wanted to keep everyone updated on a couple small Counter-Strike changes we're making. The zoomed Bullpup and Krieg 552 zoomed in crosshairs will now use the expanding green crosshair rather than the legacy HL sprites. The radar will have some opacity options for those brighter maps. In addition, we're experimenting with improving the Dual Elites and M249 -- which will fill the suppressive fire niche. We plan on rolling out these changes in the near future."

Dual elites and suppressive fire...not two terms I'd normally use in the one sentence. He also noted that any feedback is welcome; full contact info is available over there.

	pk 10:58 28/1/2004	What they really need to do is default the mp_startmoney to 1000 so every1 can buy elites for pistols. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	ObZ^ 11:07 28/1/2004	make it free necro :P [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Blitz Editor UKTerrorist 11:16 28/1/2004	Or even make it so that there are ocassions where we might actually need night vision. Don't think I've ever bought a pair. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	boon Spec-Ops Detachment Alpha 11:23 28/1/2004	u obviously aint ever experienced the night vision rush then, what a tactic! [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	Raveh Shoot First Ask Later 11:27 28/1/2004	I used to buy a lot of nightvision when they f***ed about the menus in 1.6 :D [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Mango 11:28 28/1/2004	Night vision rush, lol. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Xaus Hub.cs 11:31 28/1/2004	another s*** update go valve [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	OverlordRob Asylum.uk 11:34 28/1/2004	i like the way theyre tryin gto introduce more guns to the game - gives some good variation auto snipers r now sweet (which i think is fair as they cost a fortune) and brining in more guns will bring more variation then again they may just die out like the famas and galil have a bit after their initial excessive use [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Venomous BLACKLiGHT 11:35 28/1/2004	another s*** update? you've not even played it yet.. i think they should improve all the useless guns till there is a balance. Ump45 more expensive than mp5 but sucks ass.. etc [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	-radon- 11:53 28/1/2004	How can you say the radar update is s***, the ammount of times i die because i have to look into a dark textured wall, to see if its my teammate is on the radar. The scope thing didnt seem to bother me :/ Whats niche? [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Carb theb0g 11:54 28/1/2004	Someone please tell me how the FµCK Dual Elites can be used for suppressive fire? They're PISTOLS, not fµcking machine guns. Another example of how VALVe and Cliffe are not fussed about the REAL problems CS has (netcode, hitboxes, etc, etc, etc) and are more concerned with making stupid minor alterations to weapons that are pretty much never used in clan games and have almost the same usage on public servers. It just begs the question, why? [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	Jimmeh 12:14 28/1/2004	"In addition, we're experimenting with improving the Dual Elites and M249 -- which will fill the suppressive fire niche." i think its talking about the m249 not the elites. its just poor english but its fairly obvious [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	h0mes 12:17 28/1/2004	"and Heaton rushes high A donning the dual elites, he suppresses the bombsite with BB pellets as potti mows them down with a puh puh puh puh paraaaaaaaaaaa" [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
